This was a new hotel. The room and staff were perfect. The location of this hotel was ok, it was pretty much at the end of the busy downtown area. Calama itself is a quiet town and don't have much to offer. It is mainly and stop from Bolivia after touring the Uyuni salt flats before catching a flight into Santiago. The hotel itself is pretty nice and would definitely recommend it as a stopover.

Experiencia Diego de Almagro Express Calama

Una vez que llegamos al hotel, los dormitorios estaban sucios. Nos cambiaron a otra habitación, la cual estaba más sucia. El personal del restaurant no son muy amables. Rescato la cordialidad de Cristian en recepción, quien ayudó en todos los problemas que tuvimos.
